(How far is this place.)

He turns and talks to Clutch.

"How much farther and what is the info on those Thousand Arm Marines?"

"I wont let you win you bastard... I killed your entire family and your the last one... I'll make shure your rain of terror ends here... ends today..."

*Suddenly a fammilair voice enters Jihons mind...*

Controll your anger my son.... Use the power it gives you but do not allow it to absorb you... Your emotions are strong... Do not let your shame controll you...

"F...F... Father????"

It is I Jihon... Your father...

"But why?"

I was given the power to watch over you and was only allowed to contact you once... You have a much greater duty now... You have to liberate this planet as well as your own. I will leave you now... May god be with you!

"FATHER! I must listen to you no mater how much it hurts..."

*The triton stops glowing and Jihon Jumps out. He falls to his knees breathing heavily and sorrow fills his eyes. He falls to the ground and looks up at the Triton. A small hole runs the whole way through the chest and out the back. Jihon looks at his arm... He is bleeding badly. He looks at a roof top before he passes out...*

"Snip... Snipers..."

"We have about a mile and a half to go yet. And as for the Thousand Sons Marines, we have no need to worry. Kalana is already at the temple with her scout team, and she says that the Thousand Sons are not straying too far from it. They're obviously being used as a base guard. So we shouldn't see any of them until we get to the temple. I wouldn't be suprised if-"

cLuTcHFieND is cut short as the sun suddenly dissapears from the sky. It's dissapearence leaves the planet in a strange blue twilight. As the warriors stop in amazement, they notice a strange green light coming from the direction of the temple. cLuTcHFieND glances at the device in his hand once more and puts it away.

"The Chaos Lords. They have sealed this entire planet. Now no one can enter or leave the atmosphere, not even by ship. We are stranded here until the Supreme Lord is defeated."

((OOC: I thought this would add some more plot to the story. It also gives our vampire characters a chance to get back in the action! ))

*If it has changed back to nighttime Jharm bursts out of the ground refreshed and ready for battle. If not, Jharm remains undergorund sleeping.*

*When the eerie darkness has settled over the land Jharm awakens sensing that it is safe to venture out into the world again. Jharm bursts out of the gorund and concentrates and a faint blue aura appears around him and he begins to run to catch up with everyone else.*

So they're after both of us.

The Thousand Sons... they are obviously be employed as temple guards. Seems we'll have to kill a squad of them get access through the Force Field.

Soul Reaver lets his eyes pass over the group.

And what a strange alliance. I doubt any one of us really understand anyone else, and yet we fight together, and for the same outcome.

I have known them for what to me is but the blinking of an eye, but I... trust them.

Fei: Sorry I’m late, didn’t get too much sleep this afternoon. Still a little tired.
Dragon: Yeah, your inability to keep quiet was keeping me awake you putts.
Fei: Dammit…Well, I got to go wake up, so I’ll be back. It’s gonna take you guys long enough to get there anyways.*Sabre Soldier makes a poor attempt to show humor*

*Fei disappears in a blaze of speed leaving several afterimages around the group. He goes back into the city, where he finds the two hostages in an alley; The male trying to make the move on the gothic chick. Sabre Soldier walks up to the man and taps him on the back*

Man: Go to hell, can’t you see I’m…..um…it’s you……ah…I.. .can explain….
*The man turns around to see Sabre Soldier towering over him, and cowers to the ground*

Fei: Was this man bothering you Madaam?

Goth2: Um….he was trying to have sex with me. The others put him in charge of watching me, but he was trying to do more than watch.

Fei: I see. I assume that the others got the info they wanted out of him, so I will dispose of him, since the others obviously didn’t have it in them.

Man: No wait…..Please, don’t kill me. Please.

Fei: Don’t worry, I’ll make it as painful as possible for you. Then when it’s over, you’ll have to answer to God for what you’ve done. You have 30 seconds to pray, before I end your sick life.

*Fei starts counting down, while the man starts praying. The Goth huddles in the corner, where she watches out of the corner of her eye what Sabre Soldier is going to do to the spy. When Fei Stops counting, he picks the man up, and presses him high against the wall with one hand.*

Fei: It just isnt’ your night is it my little friend. You should not worry about dying. There is something on the other side of life. You should just worry about how you’re going to die.

*When Sabre Soldier is done speaking, he holds out his other hand and presses it to the mans face. After touching his face, he drops the man, and steps back, a smile on his face. The man looks puzzled about what is going on. Sabre Soldier then holds out his hand again. A faint image of a beating heart forms into it. Sabre Soldier slowly begins to squeeze the heart, and the man doubles over in pain. He soon begins to cough up blood, and his organs constrict from within. He screams in shear agony. Blood spills from every part of his body. When Sabre Soldier is done, he jerks his hand back, the heart still in it, and the man’s heart rips through his chest, bursting through in an explosion of gore, and lands in Sabre Soldier’s hand.*

Dragon: Wow, Dagon’s Call works wonders. Can you do that on anyone.

Fei: Pitiful scum of the planet. I hope you rot in hell for eternity. As for this, yes, I can do it on anyone I wish, as long as I make contact with them. It’s an old Assamite Trick that the Vampire’s of the Middle, and Far East used to use in battles. A very lethal attack, attacking an opponent from the inside. There is no way to stop it. It even works on other Vampires, causing them to frenzy. Well madaam go home. When we are ready for your aid, I will return for you.

*Sabre Soldier picks up his new overcoat that was lying on the ground, and puts it on. After that, he vanishes, reappearing back with the others, the heart still in his hand, as he begins to drain it.*

Dragon: That spy wasn’t too bad after all. At least he went for a good cause.
Fei: I guess so. Anyways, let’s not forget our mission, what ever that may be.

"Hey everyone I'm back. What happepened to the sun? It should still be light out, of course don't get me wrong i am glad i was finally able to come back out."

*Jharm sees the eerie glow coming from the temple.*

"Uh...what is that all about?"

*Jharm guesses that maybe the glow at the temple must have sometihng to do with the sudden nighttime.*

Cameron. I found an unguarded open door at the temple. I'm going to sneak in. I'll try to find the shield generator and shut it down. I'll also try to find the source of this seal spell and destroy it. I'll see you guys when you get here.

Kalana orders the scout team to return to base, and then sneaks into the open door. Just after she sneaks through it, the door closes and the shield covers it once more.

"Kalana, NO! That's a trap and you know it!"

cLuTcHFieND then suddenly realises that he can no longer feel Kalana's psychic presense. He immedeately becomes extremely worried.

"Kalana found an open door at the temple. She went inside, but I know it was a trap."

cLuTcHFieND's aura flares up around him as he powers up.

"Forget hiding my power level. I have to get to the temple now and-"

cLuTcHFieND is interuppted by an entire squadron of Chaos Marines materializing in front of the group. There are tanks and tritons as well as armed marines and Khorne Bezerkers, the Chaos's deadly hand-to-hand combat experts. The group immedeately find themselves being fired upon. Bullets glance off cLuTcHFieND's power armour as he rolls to one side and whips out his bolt rifle.

"They ambushed us! Defend yourselves!"

*Sabre Soldier dodges the the rapid fire bullets that project at him. Several coming close, as his figure weaves left and right, up and down, with unimaginable speed.*

Fei: Ha, like hell I'll let you do that again. cLuTcHfIeND, I can get you to the temple quickly if you want me to. I'm the fastest one here. That way, you can get to Kalana quickly. Once you get her, I'll be back to pick you two up. Or I would be able to hang around the temple and take care of the trash with you two. These guys, can hold off this group.

*Sabre Soldier disappears, reappearing next to clutchfiend, waiting for an answer, still holding the heart in his hand. He throws the heart into the air above the chaos troops. It explodes into pieces, but is every bit of it is sustained in air. The droplets of blood, and meat hold their place in a large orb formation, where they turn black, and shape into large sharded crystalline darts. The darts project themselves at the troops, causing them to take cover on the ground, giving the others a chance to advance in closer for a melee battle. Afterwards, Fei begins to glow a light blue, and looks at clutchfiend with a blurred expression, the bullets seem to melt within his image, passing through him in a watery effect as he dodges them. Sabre Soldier then holds out his arm waiting.*

Fei: Well, are you coming?

"Go on Clutchfiend, go get Kalana, we can handle these guys."

*While Jharm is yelling to Clutch he receives a tank shot in the chest sending him into a nearby hill. As he is climbing out of the hill Jharm looks at the tanks and his eyes go red. He then points his hands down at the ground and rocks begin to rise up and cover him changing him into a miniature golem. He then rushes forward and rams right through the side of one of the tanks and killing anyone inside.*

Gisias: Haha... Feel your face freind... *Jihon feels his bare face and frowns deeply.* You are a fool to think you could come storming in here and kill all of us! I have a new mask for you Jihon... Just like the one I wear... Nice and cold! How does betrayal sound? Or how about... Decept? Hmmm? Well I have been saving this mask just for you... a mask that shows the sheer pride of the bed family! The evil that we emminate and our destructive nature are all contained within this peice of metal! It is the mask of... DEATH!!

Jihon: I should have figured you would steal an Idea from your father! You do know that his mask was his undoing?

*For the first time Gisias steps into the light. His attire is simular to that of Thisias yet he wears a mask of steel. The mask has the word "Master" carved into the forehead.*

Gisias: Yes I know you used the blasted pain sabre technique... I should never have allowed him to teach you that!

Jihon: Oh thats right... we compeated at the Trial By Fire! I won by the way!

*Gisias slams his fist into the wall beside Jihon planting a hole in the wall.*

Gisias: AND YOU THINK THAT THAT WAS NOT STAGED?! Your whol;e life the antidevultian Cerberis has been using you! But he was weak! I am not... as you will see soon when we are bonded!

Jihon: I will not allow you top use me Gisias... The quicksilver sickness cannot harm me!

Gisias: But I know one thing that can.....

*Gisias pulls out three masks. Greed, envy, and sin....*

Gisias: Ring any bells?

*He throws all the masks to the floor and pulls out three more... Hatred, murder, and pain...*

Gisias: Still not getting it? well how about this?

*Gisias pulls out the rose given to Jihon by Rose... He places the rose on top of the pile of, seemingly harmless, masks. The rose turns black and falls to peices on top of the pile. The pile begins to glow wildly. The light is almost blinding untill it finally fades revealing one mask where the pile once was. Gisias picks up the mask and points out the new writing apon it...*

Gisias: Those were the masks of all the bed family... Thisias was born to you and did not posses such a mask... You were given a mask... A potent one at that! This is... *Turns the mask over to reveal the writng.* The mask of PURE EVIL!!!!

Jihon: NOOOOOOOO!!!! It couldent be... The legendary mask of evil! It was said to have been destroyed billions of years ago!

Gisias: It was... Splintered into 6 peices all together... and now they are here in one place! BEHOLD JIHON YOUR NEW MASK!!!

"Everyone is right, go Clutch. Kalana needs you. You obviosley care for her. Go!!"

He Jumps from the cover of the rocks and raises his hand. A yellow glow starts to cover his hand. He clentches two of his fingers and leaves the first three out. He closes his eyes and a huge ki blast erupts from his hand, some marines get out of the way, while others are charred to the bone. Dom places his hand on his Katana and unsheathe's it. He gets in his attack stance.

"Go, Clutch. Now."

Dom charges into the mob of chaos marines.

"I fight for the love of the people and the peace of the world."

cLuTcHFieND reaches out and grasps Sabre Soldier's outstreched hand.

"Please take me there as fast as you can. Where you go after that is up to you."

Kalana is nervous. For some reason, her psycic link with the outside has been severed. And the feelings she is getting from up ahead aren't very pleasent.

She ignores this however and begins to walk down the passageway.
